Yup, that’s right, we made the Rat and Mouse headlines this morning by calling out Liam Bailey over the weekend. Who’s next, Guardian, Times, Evening Standard, Metro, c’mon guys we know you’re reading, show your love (:
Thanks to Ben for the support, but more importantly, it’s nice to see we have backing in our argument, given the Telegraph article Rat and Mouse also linked to this morning. Ironically, that article also quotes extensively from Liam, but this time he’s supporting the theory that the foreign buyers are propping up the London market, also verified by Land Registry figures released today and the fact that London is apparently set to break another record in bonuses this year in spite of the credit crunch. Who knows, maybe we were a little premature in calling out Liam like that, since the Telegraph article shows that he was putting together the Prime Central London Index. Maybe he didn’t have all his figures together before FT went to press on Saturday; or maybe he was just plain misquoted, or maybe the FT was perhaps maybe guilty of a little sensationalism, tabloid style journalism? Could it be? Maybe? Nah … not the FT, say it ain’t so… please
